Lamar Odom Has THIS to Say About Khloe Kardashian Pregnancy
While most of the celebrity gossip world reacted last week with shock and glee over the news that Khloe Kardashian was pregnant, there was one person on the planet who may have felt differently.
Could Lamar Odom really be happy for his ex-wife?
More than anyone, Odom is aware of how badly Khloe has wanted to start a family.
She’s talked about it for years.
She openly discussed fertility issues that she and Lamar encountered during their marriage, which came to an end after about four years, mostly due to Odom’s drug addiction and admitted adultery.
Each star has gone his and her separate ways at this point, although each has also made it clear that the other will always hold a special place in his or her heart.
So… back to the question above:
Now that Khloe is expecting a child with serious boyfriend Tristan Thompson, how does Odom feel about the development?
“I wish her well,” the former NBA star told Complex’s Everyday Struggle on yesterday, adding as always:
“Still got love for her.”
Odom did not directly address the pregnancy issue.
But there’s no doubt that he’s aware of it.
He must also know that Kylie Jenner is pregnant with a child she conceived via sexual intercourse with Travis Scott… AND that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are expecting a child early next year via surrogacy.
“Kanye is a good dude,” Lamar said in this same interview, referencing the overdose from about a year ago that nearly took his life and adding:
“He was there for me when I was in a coma, he was there for me when I woke up.
“I would say [our relationship] probably deteriorated with all the other relationships that were built. But it’s like that sometimes. It’d probably be weird [to contact Kanye now.
“But I would have no problem with it.”
Odom is slowly trying to rebuild his life after this extreme health care.
As far as we know, he isn’t dating anyone.
And he’s seemed to have given up hope that he’ll ever reconcile with Kardashian, especially now that she’s pregnant and especially now that she’s with a dude everyone seems to like.
“He’s very humble and generous,” an insider tells Us Weekly of Thompson, adding:
“He has an incredible sense of humor. Khloe is more outgoing than he is, but he has a great sense of humor and great group of friends.
“He is very mature and career-focus and very family-focused.”

Khloe Kardashian: I Never Lied About My Fertility! Lamar Odom Was Just Sterile!
In light of the news that Khloe Kardashian is pregnant, some fans were quick to point out that, in the past, Khloe Kardashian had appeared to struggle with fertility issues. In light of her current pregnancy, they accused her of lying.
Khloe, first of all, insists that she never lied to anyone about that.
And second of all, while speaking out about this pregnancy, she blames failures to conceive on Lamar Odom.
Khloe’s pregnancy comes on the heels of the news that Kylie Jenner is pregnant and will become a mother at the age of 20.
Since Kim is also pregnant via surrogate with her third child, 2018 is going to be a very interesting year for the Kardashians.
For one thing, we’ll be learning three new Kardashian baby names.
Kim is already a mom and she’s married and has her life together, so we don’t really have any real concerns in that department.
Kylie Jenner … well, she got pregnant at 19 after, by our calculations, very likely getting pregnant with Travis Scott’s baby after one month of dating him.
It doesn’t help that Travis Scott is Kylie’s rebound boyfriend after her years of on-again, off-again with Tyga.
On top of her youth and maturity issues, people just don’t think that Kylie has any realistic grasp of how time-consuming it is to have children.
Aside from her massive network of supportive family members and her basically infinite resources, Kylie’s one real asset is that she might actually make a good mom. She’s caring towards her dogs and that’s usually a great sign.
Khloe, on the other hand, has a reputation for being controlling. Some worry that she might not make the best mother.
But some fans have other concerns about the mom-to-be.
Fans have long memories, and thanks to the internet, nothing ever just “goes away.”
So, for years now, it’s looked like Khloe might genuinely struggle with fertility issues. It’s been a recurring storyline on Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
One fan in particular, Instagram user @ttorria, worried about how that storyline meshed with Khloe’s current pregnancy.
“Am not hating, but you lied to us on the show when you were married to @LamarOdom that you were having issues conceiving.”
That’s an interesting accusation. And a good point.
“After that you finally tell us the truth that you never wanted to have a child with him because you both had bigger issues in the relationship.”
Like Lamar’s alleged substance abuse issues, basically.
“It’s unfair to those who are truly struggling in that area.”
You get the feeling that maybe this is personal to this Instagram user.
Khloe Kardashian actually replied, defending herself … and kind of throwing Lamar under the bus in the process.
“I never lied to anybody on the show. I did try and I did go through fertility treatments. Those were documented.”
It sounds like maybe they should have done more testing before she put herself through that.
“But once we went through the fertility treatments and we realized the problem did not lie within me.”
Gee … we wonder who that might be.
“The only thing I ever withheld was who had an issue fertility wise. Finally a light went off in my head — let me remind you — it takes two to conceive.”
Nice use of subtlety there, Khloe.
Khloe doesn’t say that Lamar Odom is sterile, but … isn’t that what she’s saying?
We’re reminded of that line from Kourtney and Kim Take New York that became one of our favorite memes.
To the camera, Kim Kardashian says: “I’m dropping hints that I’m single.” The camera then cuts to Kim’s conversation, where she bluntly states: “I’m single.”
Well, you might say that this is Khloe “dropping hints” that Lamar Odom is sterile and that this is the reason that they were unable to conceive.
It’s a reasonable explanation, though we don’t know that Lamar will appreciate it.

Khloe Kardashian Relives the Moment She Heard that Lamar Odom Had DIED!
Kylie Jenner might be pregnant, which is interesting news but also the best imaginable press for the Keeping Up With The Kardashians 10th Anniversary Special that airs on Sunday.
They have an entire decade of their family"s dramatic ups and downs to cover, but obviously there are some highlights that they couldn"t gloss over. One of them being Lamar Odom"s overdose.
In the sneak peek below, Khloe talks about when she first received the news — which she later learned was false — informing her that Lamar Odom had died.
It might not seem like that long ago, but it was nearly two years ago when Lamar Odom had a very serious "medical event" while in a Las Vegas brothel.
At the time, it was really unclear if he was going to survive.
The Kardashians got blasted for filming Keeping Up With The Kardashians at the hospital.
(You know, the usual — people accused them of being vultures, of using Lamar"s near-death experience for publicity and drama, etc)
But this was a genuintely upsetting thing for them. Lamar was family, and not just to Khloe.
In fact, that"s how the topic came up at the reunion special, as you can see in the sneak peek below.
This anecdote, in which the Kardashians relive this dramatic and traumatic moment when they first got the news about Lamar, starts with Kendall.
Kendall Jenner was asked about what was, in all of her years of filming the show, the hardest scene or moment to film.
Kendall sort of … pivots.
She instead describes the day that was the hardest, for her, to do any sort of work.
This was, of course, when she heard the news of Lamar Odom"s overdose.
"I landed in London and the first text that popped into my phone, it was from Kim and it had said, "Lamar passed away.""
Now, that was not true. Bear with her, for a moment.
"I, like, immediately started sobbing on the plane. Then I got — the next text came through saying, "OK, actually he"s OK, he"s alive, but he"s not doing well.""
Again, Lamar was family. That"s not easy for anyone to deal with.
Khloe, who was of course closer to Lamar and this story than any of her siblings, talks about what that moment was like for her.
"On the plane, they said he died. Someone faked it."
Kim explains what happened.
"Someone made a fake account. And emailed me with the wrong information."
That"s a nasty, inexcusable thing to do to someone.
To anyone — not just to a celebrity.
Khloe"s personal emotional reaction was … not subtle. She was inconsolable.
"I was screaming."
Lamar Odom has insisted that he wasn"t on drugs, or even drunk, that night at the brothel.
Obviously, there"s nothing wrong with visiting a brothel of voluntary sex workers, just as there"s nothing wrong with sex work itself.
Many were scandalized by his circumstances at the time, but it"s important to note that he wasn"t cheating on Khloe.
Lamar and Khloe were, at the time, still legally bound but they were definitely exes.
Thankfully, Lamar has since recovered.

Kris Jenner: Apologizing to Khloe Kardashian for Sleeping with Lamar Odom?!
After ten solid years of being in the spotlight, is it even possible for the Kardashians to surprise us anymore?
Judging by this new interview with the family, we"d say yes, yes it most definitely is possible.
See, to celebrate that previously mentioned tenth anniversary of the Kardashians" rise to fame — meaning the tenth anniversary of the debut of Keeping Up with the Kardashians — there"s a brand new special coming out.
In the special, Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, Kendall, Kylie, Kris, and Scott Disick all sit down for a nice little chat with Ryan Seacrest, who"s been a producer for the show since the beginning.
In one section of the interview, which you can watch below, Ryan asks the family about some of the wilder tabloid rumors that have come out about them over the years.
And things take a weird turn real fast.
The first rumor is one about Kendall hooking up with Scott behind Kourney"s back.
When she sees it, Kendall laughs and says "I didn"t even know that existed!"
She shouldn"t be surprised though — there have been rumors that Scott"s hooked up with each of Kourtney"s sisters at one point or another.
They all joke about it — Scott boasts to Kendall that "I had you when you were young," which is pretty cringey — but Kendall clarifies that the report is "definitely false."
But their reaction to the next tabloid story … well, the reaction to this one is a little different.
This one is about Kris allegedly sleeping with Lamar Odom while he and Khloe were still married.
Everyone admits that they could see the story being true, and Kris actually apologizes to Khloe.
The story adds that Kris ruined Khloe"s life with her actions, and that one of her sisters knew but didn"t say anything — Kourtney claims she"s that sister in question.
Kris tries to turn the conversation around a little bit, telling Ryan that "you gotta laugh" when you hear such ridiculous stories.
But Khloe and Scott are still talking about Kris" alleged tryst with Lamar.
Now, are they all joking here?
It"s pretty obvious that they are.
But still, it"s pretty interesting to see how they all react to this, that"s all.

Blac Chyna: Getting with Lamar Odom to Punish Rob Kardashian?!
Earlier this week, something very bizarre but very intriguing happened …
Blac Chyna, Tyga, and Lamar Odom hung out. Together. In the same location.
It sort of makes sense for Chyna and Tyga to be spotted together — they do share a child, after all, and there’s always the possibility that they’re actually mature parents capable of getting along for the sake of their son.
But throwing Lamar in there makes it seem like they were attending some sort of support group for Kardashian cast-offs.
In reality, they were at a launch party for some app.
But isn’t that first thing so much more fun to think about?
And, according to a new report from Hollywood Life, Chyna did take the unique opportunity to be crafty and conniving.
“Blac got Lamar’s number and she plans to use it,” a source claims.
Use it for what, when she needs something off a high shelf?
Not quite.
“She wants to get together with him and figure out how he can help her — she’s going to pump him for as much information as she can,” the source explains.
Because remember, Lamar used to be extremely close to none other than Rob Kardashian — Chyna’s ex and the subject of her nasty new legal battle.
The source also says that “She’d love to hang out with him again, too, just because she knows it will mess with Rob.”
Another source says that she’s definitely still with that new man of hers, but “she’s very calculated,” and she’s not above “flirting” with Lamar to mess with Rob.
And a person who attended that launch party claimed that “Lamar looked enamored with Blac and couldn’t stop checking out her revealing cleavage.”
“They looked to be really close and comfortable with each other.”
So if Chyna actually does plan on using Lamar in her epic feud with Rob, it seems like he might be receptive to her advances.
Should be fun for the whole family — can you imagine Khloe Kardashian’s reaction if anything actually happened between Chyna and Lamar?
Meanwhile, yet another insider says that Rob is “a very emotional guy,” and even just seeing Lamar and Chyna hanging out together “is like a knife in the heart.”
Additionally, “Rob can be very paranoid at times and this has got his head spinning out of control. He’s imagining all the things they’re talking about and plotting behind his back.”
Apparently Rob is “convinced that Chyna is going to let Lamar on her side and find a way to use him in her advantage in the custody case.”
Which isn’t great, because Lamar and Rob used to live together, and he’s seen Rob “at his very worst.”
This source says that Khloe is telling Rob that Lamar wouldn’t do that to him, and “yes, he put her through hell but that doesn’t mean he’ll do the same to Rob.”
But that doesn’t mean that Chyna won’t try to get her claws in the guy.
This whole thing is just so spectacularly messy, right? It’s messy in a way that only the Kardashians can be.
And honestly, we can’t wait to see how it all plays out.

Blac Chyna: Spotted Partying With Tyga & Lamar Odom?!
It’s a Kardashian exes party, everyone!
Yes, according to E! News Blac Chyna was spotted hanging out with both Tyga and Lamar Odom at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Los Angeles last night.
The trio – each of whom is most famous for enduring messy breakups with members of the Kardashian clan – were all on hand to celebrate the launch of the I.Go Live app.
If that’s not a 2017 sentence, we don’t know what is.
Anyway, it’s a little odd that the three were spotted being civil together.
Lamar has no cause for beef with the other two, but Tyga and Chyna haven’t gotten along very well in recent years.
As followers of the Kard clan know, there’s a whole lot of history between those two.
For starters, Blac and Tyga were once engaged, and they have a child together.
On top of that, of course, Chyna dated Rob Kardashian at the same time that Tyga was going out with Rob’s sister Kylie Jenner.
Both of those relationships ended in ugly fashion recently, but Chyna definitely wins the ugliest breakup award, as Rob posted nude photos of her on social media and publicly accused her of cheating on him and using hard drugs in the presence of her kids.
Throughout it all, Tyga claimed he warned Rob about Chyna, but if she was angry about her ex’s words of caution, she certainly didn’t show it last night.
In fact, she was so enjoying the unexpected reunion with Tyga that onlookers say at one point she grabbed his arm to make sure he wasn’t leaving the party.
“I’m just going to the bathroom,” T-Raww replied. “I’ll be right back.”
The whole thing is sure to spark another round of “Blac and Tyga are getting back together” rumors, but sources say their interaction appeared to be platonic.
Later in the evening, Chyna, Tyga, and Lamar were spotted conversing with Jennifer Lopez’s ex Casper Smart.
So let this be a lesson to all you young people out there.
Don’t bother going to school or developing a skill.
In the 21st century, you can just have sex with a famous person and get invited to fancy parties for the rest of your life.
Sadly, it seems Scott Disick was unable to attend last night’s festivities.
Lamar Odom: Khloe Kardashian Caught Me Doing Coke With Another Girl
To say that Lamar Odom has struggled in recent years would be a massive understatement.
The former NBA star and ex-husband of Khloe Kardashian has come up against just about every kind of adversity one can imagine.
Granted, many of his difficulties have been self-created, but to his credit, Odom has been surprisingly candid about the extent to which he’s responsible for his own suffering.
Back in October of 2015, Odom overdosed during a bender at a brothel in Nevada.
For a while, it looked as though Odom would never emerge from his coma, but miraculously he managed a near-total recovery.
The 37-year-old says he’s sober these days, but his road to a healthier life hasn’t been an easy one.
Odom was spotted drinking and behaving erratically on multiple occasions after his overdose, and it was his stubborn refusal to change his ways that reportedly led Khloe to cut ties with her ex completely.
In a new piece he penned for The Player’s Tribune, Lamar opens up about the ways he self-destructed, revealing that his personal rock bottom came when Khloe walked on him doing coke with a girl he’d been cheating on her with.
“At that point in my life, I was doing coke every day. Pretty much every second of free time that I had, I was doing coke. I couldn’t control it,” Odom writes.
“Cocaine is a hell of a drug,” he adds, quoting the music icon and fellow addict Rick James.
“One of the darkest places I’ve ever been was when I was in a motel room, getting high with this chick, and my wife (at the time) walked in. That probably was like rock bottom,” Odom writes.
“My d-ck and my habit took me down all the roads that you don’t ever wanna go down.”
For a brief period after he emerged from his coma, it looked as though Lamar and Khloe would get back together, but Odom seems to have come to terms with the fact that that ship has now sailed.
These days, he says his motivation to stay sober is his family, and he looks forward to being a better father to his kids.
He adds that he plans to continue speaking honestly about his darkest times in an effort to inspire others.
We wish him all the best.

Khloe Kardashian: Terrified of Lamar Odom"s Upcoming Tell-All?!
Remember the good old days of Khlomar?
Sure, things ended terribly for Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom, and yes, it turned out that things were never actually that great for them, either.
Khloe has said that she managed to keep a lot of Lamar’s issues private for longer than we know, and they’ve both been open about how he cheated on her.
But still, there was a lot of love between them, and when things were good, they were so good, you know?
And that’s why it’s a little surprising that Khloe is reportedly freaking out about the possibility of Lamar writing a tell-all.
To back up a little, yes, Lamar has confirmed that he’s working on a book.
He told Hollywood Life that the book would be an “autobiography of my life,” and that he’s “looking forward to that.”
When asked exactly what would be included in his story, he said “Everything! Everything! Just everything!”
“Open about everything, everything that has been going on in my life! About the facts!”
He sure seems excited about it, right?
And goodness knows he has plenty of material.
He could write about his basketball career — several ups and downs there — and his troubled childhood.
He could write about his 2015 overdose, how he very nearly died in a brothel. We imagine that information could sell some copies.
He could also write about the Kardashians.
And that seems to be an issue.
According to a source, Khloe’s entire family is “very concerned about this tell-all book,” and they have “reached out to ask him to be respectful.”
“Lamar has spoken recklessly about her family in the past,” the source says, so “Khloe fears what major secrets he could reveal.”
“While Khloe and the rest of the Kardashians try to live a good life, they are no saints.”
… Is that supposed to be a shocker?
“Like any family,” the source continues, “they have skeletons in their closet which could seriously hurt their brand if revealed.”
Their “brand” was started with a sex tape Kim Kardashian made with Ray J. How much lower could they go?
Maybe Lamar knows that he’s usually a pretty sympathetic figure, and he has dirt on Khloe he could twist to his advantage.
Or maybe since he used to be so close with Rob Kardashian, he knows some things about him that the family wouldn’t really want to be made public.
It’s hard to say exactly what they’re afraid of.
It’s also hard to say whether or not Lamar will take it easy on them.
For the most part, he’s been nothing but respectful about the entire family — but he’s also been very honest about how upset he’s been about losing Khloe.
One thing’s for sure: we’ll be eagerly awaiting the release of any and all book Lamar releases from now until the end of time.

Lamar Odom: Rob Kardashian Won"t Talk to Me!
It"s been a rough few years for Lamar Odom, and it doesn"t look as though things will be getting easier any time soon.
Odom, of course, hit rock bottom when he overdosed at a Las Vegas brothel back in 2015.
While his recovery has been miraculous (doctors thought Odom would never awaken from his coma), it"s also been tremendously difficult.
Odom has relapsed and lost friends to overdoses.
He appeared to be on the verge of a reconciliation with Khloe Kardashian, only to have her cut ties due to his continued self-destructive behavior.
These days, Khloe is dating Tristan Thompson, and it seems she has no communication with Lamar whatsoever.
In a surprisingly candid new interview with Wendy Williams, Lamar reveals that Khloe"s family has followed suit by refusing to speak with him entirely.
The most difficult part of it all, Odom says, is the loss of his friendship with Rob Kardashian.
During his marriage to Khloe, Lamar became extremely close to Rob, but now it seems they haven"t spoken in years.
“We were close,” Odom tells Williams. “He has a child. I haven’t met his child yet or anything.”
Asked for his opinion on why Rob may have chosen to cut ties, Lamar speculates that it" because of the way he treated Khloe:
“I don’t know. I guess maybe it’s because I hurt his sister too much. I have no idea. If she was my sister, I would have a problem with me too.”
Interestingly, Lamar says he no longer has any interest in reconciling with Khloe.
He also says he "didn"t take any drugs" the night of his hospitalization, despite toxicology reports that show cocaine and other substances in his system.
Watch a clip from the interview below:
